I did read a bit, and it is apparently possible to have dust particles inside of plasma arrange in a way to be a self replicating structure.

However, life is far more than simple self replication. Organic compounds are a massive number of insanely complex and hard to nail down reactions. Also, the earth isn't a ball of plasma, and computers aren't going to become those.
